Hockey Edmonton

Congrats to South Side Athletic Club alum Jay Bouwmeester on an incredible run in the NHL - wonderful accomplishments while always being a class act on and off the ice.

The man who is being praised for effectively developing the Edmonton Oilers' bright, young stars will join us this Friday night for a virtual roundtable on coaching. Jay Woodcroft will bring his great insights (and impressive resume!) to what will surely be an entertaining and informative seminar. Space is limited for this complimentary session so coaches should sign up quickly at: http://www.hockeyedmonton.ca/article/63189 Photo courtesy NHL.com

A tough decision, indeed, but we remain hopeful we will still be able to get back on the ice for some action this season.

A great 1-2 punch for a wonderful cause. Sammy is looking down and smiling, grateful for all the people helping more kids play sports.

Michelle and Deja are rocking the Maple Leaf Athletic Club U18AAA Toy Drive for CHED 's Santas Anonymous. Three games down, six more to go and countless smiles on the faces of children. Way to go ladies and everyone who is supporting this great campaign - we love building community!

As we work to win the war over this virus...we want to ensure you know what to do should someone on your club test positive: https://bit.ly/2ImwuVq Keep up the fight, do the right thing and keep healthy and strong!

Players are going to have to wait a little longer for celebrations like this one. We're putting QuikCard Edmonton Minor Hockey Week on hold due to the pandemic. The tournament was slated to run in January. This delay will see organizers look for an opportunity later in the year to stage this historic event. QEMHW dates back to 1964 and has been one of the largest and longest running hockey tournaments in the world. It was awarded a Guinness World Record in 2003 for the larges...t ice hockey tournament with 471 teams and 7,127 players! We appreciate the ongoing support of QuikCard and its leader, Lyle Best, who endorses the move as the responsible thing to do. We are also grateful to have all the volunteers, who are led by Paul Raimundo, ready to step up yet again when the time is right. In the meantime, we will all keep doing everything within our power to get these Covid-19 numbers trending in the right direction. If we can achieve that, we will once again celebrate the tradition generations of Edmontonians have come to love!
